Erik,

This is another excellent example of how little WSJ writers and the rest of the Wise understand the technology industry. Using their logic, 3.5" diskette drives would have had a hard time replacing 5.25" because they weren't downward compatible. LS120 is DOA! IMHO, anyone who see's this as a serious threat to ZIP hasn't been following this industry very closely or very long. For LS120 to ever have had a chance of success, it would have had to been made downward compatible with ZIP not 3.5".
